American actress Adriana Bailon-Hauteon, known for the project 'Cheetah Girls,' is in South Africa filming the highly anticipated Disney movie 'The Cheetah Girls: Next Gen.' The actress has shared moments from her stay in the country, using music that holds great significance for South Africa.
In her post, Bailon-Hauteon noted that her heart is full from this experience, expressing love for South Africa and pride in the project. She also expressed gratitude for friendship and memories.
The musical composition 'Sister Bethina,' which the actress used, is a song by Mgarimbe, who once gifted the nation its second anthem and unites South Africans. After South African followers heard this song, they began commenting on the music choice.
In response to the comments, Bailon-Hauteon published a video where she and her friends discuss the necessity of playing 'Sister Bethina' during their time in South Africa. The actress and her family are having a wonderful time exploring Mzansi and even attended a football match.

Responding to Instagram user Michel-le Fortune, Bailon-Hauteon announced that she was present at the match between South Africa and New Zealand, stating: 'YES, I was here for the big match... Between the Springboks and all the blacks!'
Her co-star from 'Cheetah Girl,' Raven-Simone, is also enjoying her time in the country. In a recent interview on Good Hope FM with Irma G, she shared her impressions of her time in South Africa.
The actress admitted that what she saw was very different from the image presented to her back home in the US. She stated that in America, 'propaganda is chaos,' and added that she plans to return home 'as an ally.' Raven-Simone emphasized that her experience was so positive that she even considered moving to South Africa, saying: 'I came here and forgot that I am from America.'
Raven-Simone not only participated in the Good Hope FM studio with Irma G to talk about 'Cheetah Girls' and other topics but also joined Irma and her relatives for lunch at their home in Parkwood.
